The Two Towers: Faramir's personality change from the book was rather disappointing but I was even more upset that Jackson & Co. felt the need to turn the Ents into oblivious morons who don't even know that "Trees are being cut down!!" just to give Pippin & Merry something heroic to do...sorry but to any LOTR fan that is a pretty large alteration from the original story where the Ents are well aware of the killing of the trees (they do talk to trees after all) and in true Ent fashion they take a good while to get together and come to a decision to attack.
Apart from that my hat is off to Peter Jackson & while I understand his cinematic reasons for the changes he made for the movie the original story fan in me is still disappointed.
